✍️ TAKE NOTE
The Future of Work is Flexible, But Trust is the Key Ingredient
The way we work is changing. More and more people are working remotely or in a hybrid model, splitting their time between the office and home. While technology helps teams stay connected, research shows trust is the real magic ingredient for a successful remote team.
Key takeaways
Trust Beats Micromanagement: Spying on employees won't boost productivity. Instead, empower your team and hold them accountable for results.
Hire for Trust: Seek out candidates who thrive with autonomy and value honesty.
Clear Communication is King: Set expectations, keep the lines of communication open, and offer regular feedback.
Focus on Results, Not Busywork: Track progress through deliverables, not time spent working.
Why This Matters: As the generation at the forefront of the remote work movement. Building a strong, trusting team culture is essential for success, no matter your work style. These tips will help you create a happy, productive team that thrives in the new world of work.

Feeling the Pinch of Inflation? Here's How to "Switch & Save"
Rising prices are hurting everyone's wallets. But we’re not here to bring problems with no solutions. Here are some tips from financial guru Lynnette Khalfani-Cox to fight inflation without sacrificing your lifestyle.
"Switch & Save": Look for smarter ways to spend on things you already buy.
Example: Ditch the expensive smartphone plan and switch to a prepaid option.
Beware of Interest: High-interest credit cards are a drain. Consider a 0% introductory rate card to save money.
Shop Smarter, Not More: Focus on whole foods like fruits and veggies instead of processed snacks at the grocery store.
Plan for Fun: Factor in a "fun fund" to your budget so you can still enjoy the occasional treat without guilt.
Track Your Spending: Awareness is key! Knowing where your money goes helps you identify areas to cut back.
Why This Matters: Millennials are facing a tough economic climate. These "switch & save" strategies can help you stretch your dollars further and weather the storm of inflation.

What's Making Us Happy: A guide to your weekend viewing and reading. Here's what NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour crew was paying attention to — and what you should check out this weekend.
Why is pop culture so obsessed with nuns?
Using nuns in pop culture can be a way to comment on the role of religion in society, the treatment of women, or the concept of authority. Nuns offer a unique combination of tradition, rebellion, and mystery that continues to capture the imagination of pop culture creators throughout the ages.
Rihanna made a splash on the internet this week with the debut of her Interview mag cover wearing… well, take a look below. Controversy is nothing new for the business mogul, fashion killa, pop star. Rihanna is known for her bold, and edgy fashion choices that have cemented her place in fashion icon history.

🎙️ Get Into It: Hooked podcast. When Tony Hathaway was arrested outside a Seattle bank in February 2014, it brought an end to one of the most prolific bank robbery streaks in American history. Hathaway robbed 30 banks in a single year, all within a 30-mile radius of his suburban home. But that’s not the most surprising part of this story. Before Hathaway was a masterful bank robber—a shape-shifting professional who confounded multiple police departments and the FBI—he was a top design engineer at Boeing, one of America’s most important companies. Hathaway travelled the world in business class, working on the 747, while hiding a gigantic secret: an OxyContin addiction that ultimately unravelled his life. Based on three years of conversations between Hathaway and journalist Josh Dean, Hooked is a different kind of crime story that takes listeners on an exceptional and very personal tour of America’s opioid epidemic. Listen on Apple or Spotify. Start at Episode 1.

🧠 Today We Learned: that in 2001, a 13-year-old Boy Scout named Cody Clawson went missing for over 18 hours near Yellowstone Park. Clawson resorted to using his belt buckle to signal to planes overhead. Eventually, he got a pilot’s attention - and that pilot was none other than Harrison Ford - who rescued Clawson.
